Hardware Limited Operational Strategy

If a number of system or sensor failures are present and PCM is not receiving enough information to operate, PCM will switch to Hardware Limited Operational Strategy (HLOS) mode. PCM will output fixed values to allow operation of vehicle. Driveability concerns will be present. PCM will not output diagnostic trouble codes in this mode.
